Vienna's accommodation capacity grew in the period between
December 2011 and December 2012 by 2,600 beds (+5%) to around
55,000 beds, but there was still a slight increase in the average
bed occupancy rate to 56.7% (2011: 56.5%), whilst room occupancy
rates remained unchanged at 70%.

In 2012 Vienna was once again
confirmed, now for the seventh time in a row, as the number one
conference city by the International Congress and Convention
Association (ICCA), with 181 international meetings in 2011.

"In 2012 Vienna continued to develop its
international outlook as a destination. The 150th birthday of
Gustav Klimt no doubt contributed to the result," said Norbert Kettner, director of the Vienna Tourist Board.
